Influence of the tidal and rainfall cycles on the population structure and density of Mesacanthion hirsutum gerlach (nematoda, thoracostomopsidae) on a tropical sandy beach (Tamandaré Bay, Pernambuco, Brazil)

The population structure (males, females and juveniles) and density of Mesacanthion hirsutum Gerlach were studied during the tides (low, flood, high and ebb) of two consecutive tidal cycles in four different months of the year (May, July, September and November). Mesacanthion hirsutum density variat...

A estrutura populacional (machos, fêmeas e juvenis) e densidade de Mesacanthion hirsutum Gerlach foram estudadas durante as marés (baixa, enchente, alta e vazante) de dois ciclos de maré consecutivos, em quatro meses diferentes do ano (Maio, Julho, Setembro e Novembro). As variações de densidade de Mesacanthion hirsutum mostraram associação com o ciclo de chuvas, com densidades mais baixas durante Julho e Setembro e significativamente maiores em Maio e Novembro. A estrutura populacional constituiu-se em sua maior parte por juvenis indicando uma reprodução continua durante todo o período de estudo. Não foram encontradas diferenças significativas entre os períodos claros e escuros do dia, contudo maiores densidades foram detectadas durante as marés altas e vazantes demonstrando que a espécie pode estar se dispersando através da coluna d'água e/ou migrando dentro do sedimento. 2015-05-18T12:19:33Z 2015-05-18T12:19:33Z 2011-09 Artigo de Periódico VENEKEY, Virag; FONSECA-GENEVOIS, Verônica Gomes da; SANTOS, Paulo Jorge Parreira dos.
